Gaëtan Charbonnier (born 27 December 1988) is a French footballer who plays as a forward for Régional 1 club Pouzauges Bocage FC.

Club career

[edit]

Born in Saint-Mandé, Charbonnier started his career at Championnat de France Amateur side Châtellerault in the 2007–08 season, his debut season impressing enough to be taken on by Paris Saint-Germain. While playing the 2008–09 season with PSG's reserve team, he was unable to make the first team.

Charbonnier signed a four-year contract in June 2009 for Ligue 2 side Angers[1] where he played three seasons in Ligue 2. Each season saw him increase his goal tally – three in 2009–10, eight in 2010–11, and 12 in 2011–12 –, reaching a total of 23 goals in 90 matches.[2]

His goal return landed him a move on 20 June 2012 to reigning Ligue 1 champions Montpellier where he signed a four-year contract. The transfer fee paid to Angers was reported as €1.5 million.[2][3] The transfer was announced the same day along with Toulouse defender Daniel Congré.[4] In August 2013, Charbonnier joined fellow Ligue 1 side Reims after only one season with Montpellier.[citation needed]

On 16 December 2022, Charbonnier returned to Ligue 2 to sign for Saint-Étienne on a contract until the end of the 2022–23 season.[5] On 15 January 2024, he signed for Bastia on a contract until the end of the 2024–25 season, with an option for a further season.[6]

At the end of the 2023–24 season, Charbonnier put an end to his professional career, signing for amateur club Pouzauges Bocage FC in the sixth-tier Régional 1, where his brother was the head coach.[7]
